"She could feel the thin stem of her glass between her fingers, the stiff pressure of the chair against her back, the faint movements of air through the room which were barely perceptible in small stirrings of tassels and beads." -The Haunting of Hill House Shirley Jackson #quotes #reading #writing

"House of Spoils" 2/5. I felt like I was on board for a lot of this movie, but something about that whole tunnel sequence was just too wild. Surely there could have been a better solution. Don't eat strange plants, kids. #movies #horror #critique

I'm curious... what do you think it would sound like if you breathed in marbles? "The stag’s chest heaved, each step weighted and heavy, sinking into the wet earth. Its jaw unhinged, a rattling breath pulled into its lungs like marbles."

It's been a very long time since I've been any amount active on social media.
